Which two answers are correct ?
1 answer:
Answer:
Choice A) x and f(x) approach negative infinity
Choice D) x and f(x) approach positive infinity
Step-by-step explanation:
A cubic curve starts low and ends high if the leading coefficient is positive, which in this case it is. This means that the left side of the graph falls while the right side rises. Your teacher might say something like "fall to the left, rise to the right" to describe what the end behavior is doing.
More formally "fall to the left" means that as x approaches negative infinity, y = f(x) is approaching negative infinity as well. Similarly, "rise to the right" indicates that as x approaches infinity, y = f(x) heads off to infinity as well. Both x and y = f(x) move in the same direction along their respective number lines; eg, if one goes in the negative direction, then so does the other.
The graph below confirms the answer visually.

Answer:
The system of linear equations has infinitely many solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's modified the equations and find the answer.
Using the first equation:
we can multiply by 2 in both sides, obtaining:
which can by simplified as:
which is equal to:
Considering the second equation:
Taking into account that from the first equation we know that: , we can express the second equation as:
, which can be simplified as:
Because (-8) is being divided by (2+k), then (2+k) can't be equal to 0, so:
if
This means that k can be any number different than -2, and for each of these solutions, there is a different solution for y, allowing also, different solutions for x.
For example, if k=0 then
which give us y=-4, and, because:
if y=-4 then
Now let's try with k=-1, then:
which give us y=-8, and, because:
if y=-8 then
.
Then, the system of linear equations has infinitely many solutions
